Prime Video announced today that a premiere date of April 17 has been set for its reboot of American Gladiators. It's the latest incarnation of the iconic physical competition series that originated in 1989.

Each episode of the show features amateur male and female contenders from across the nation stepping into the Arena to face 16 powerful new American Gladiators. From classic events like Joust, Powerball, Hang Tough, and The Wall, to high-impact new events including The Ring and Collision, every showdown demands strength, strategy, and pure grit. Only one man and one woman will conquer the Arena, claim $100,000, and earn the title of American Gladiator Champion.

The first three episodes will release on Friday, April 17, followed by three new episodes releasing Friday April 24, and the final four episodes releasing on Friday May 1.
